It's our general policy that all libraries have configuration options that permit them to be built in cross environment, by explicitly passing appropriate configuration options. Until those are added to libssp, it should be automatically disabled for cross builds. Please file a PR for this problem. There have been several libraries contributed of late which have had serious build and installation problems, including placing files in incorrect directories and not being disabled in casses where they do not work. In future, I plan to be looking hard at any new library submissions and asking contributors to test and fix such issues before checking in. These problems are not hard to fix, but sometimes folks that are used to working only in native environments do not think about them.
